Coronoid Process

In Elbow Flexion the

Coronoid Process of the Ulna

articulates with the

Coronoid Fossa of the distal Humerus

Page 21: Slideshow: Ulna

In Elbow Flexion the

Coronoid Process of the Ulna

articulates with the

Coronoid Fossa of the distal Humerus

Page 22: Slideshow: Ulna

The distal end of the Ulna is much smaller than the proximal end

It helps form the wrist joint

Page 23: Slideshow: Ulna

The Ulna articulates at both ends with the Radius

Proximal Radio-Ulnar Joint

Distal Radio-Ulnar Joint

Page 24: Slideshow: Ulna

The Distal Ulna has a

Rounded Head

Page 25: Slideshow: Ulna
